Consulting

Single out the best business cases to maximise your savings

Every part might not fit with 3D printing or be 3D printed with profitability. Therefore it is a necessity to understand the full extent of your business. Spare catalogues sometimes reach hundreds of thousands of references and datas are fragmented between several databases (ERP, PLM). Determining the appropriate parts is not the easiest stage of implementing 3D printing.

Spare Part 3D consulting service aims at creating awareness about 3D printing among industrial manufacturers, and supporting your company getting into 3D Printing in a smart way.

Once we have a good understanding of your business value, Spare Parts 3D performs a profitability study for each selected part to ensure optimal savings, and to highlight the process changes required to capture that lost value. With this objective in mind, we developed DigiPART, the platform that stock digitally spare parts. With it, our customers can browse automatically through millions of parts and find the one that makes the most sense to be produced by 3D printing.

We offer to our client our methodology, tools and expertise to single-out the right spares from both technical and business aspects.

Analyzing

your spare parts catalogue in surface, to gather spares in clusters.

Building

the technology transfer matrix according to those clusters (technical requirement per part type, fitting process-material solutions)

Performing

in-depth case studies on demonstrators from those clusters. (digitization, production, business cases)

Testing

the case studies to validate our analysis.

Together, we are now able to plan a practical roadmap to set the next steps.

Engineering and Qualification

Digitize your parts and set the parameters for production

Spare parts 3D commits its highly-skilled engineer team at your service to take care about the creation of your digital Spare Parts catalogue.

We proceed to your transition toward 3D printing effectively in three steps:

We want to make inventories digital, for your parts to be always available as well as your machines to be repaired indefinitely. This online platform provides instantly the best technology and material to produce the part as well as the production cost and lead time for delivery.

With DigiPART, our specific digital inventory, data are gathered with each part directly into a central cloud. We are now able to find out all the information for a decentralized production. We can now print any part anytime anywhere just by the click of a button.
